Thank you PonderingTime Magazine for spreading the word about the ambitious PermaTree project in Ecuador and asking us questions to better understand our motivation and our goals with it.

Holistic Collaborative Entrepreneurs

We are seeking to attract other pioneering individuals spirits, people who want to co-create and are able to put up with some discomfort for the joy of making pioneer transformation work in a remote but accessible organized holistic operation such as PermaTree. There so much more than only maximizing the net worth and increasing that by x annually. Holistic driven entrepreneurs can enable a huge global positive transformation shift – local and regional, economic, social, emotional, flora and fauna, etc.

Are you maybe a visionary; individual with an entrepreneurial spirit who believes, like we do, that it’s time to transition from a destructive society to a sustainable world? Be the change you want to see and join us at PermaTree!

We understand that the PonderingTime collective is such a international organization too and so if you know any great visionary individuals who are talented in writing, just drop them your idea and for sure they will be more than happy to publish your transformational beyond mainstream thoughts on their trilingual platform. Or if you believe who know somebody invite them to join or recommend them to take part into those exiting times we all live in, by adding their very own positive grain of change. We all need the planet to shift in a positive change and first but foremost the change has to come from within the individual, only then can he or she attempt to make a significant contribution to humanity.

Open Source Blueprint Library

Our philosophy since the very early start at PermaTree is to first create and then make the blueprint-idea(s) freely available, so that any other organization can duplicate what we build here. Adapt it to their environment and take advantage from our learnings. We want to help to spread the holistic world view way of looking at our very own environment – meaning literally anything surrounding anything not only nature thus anything is interconnected with everything. We love the idea of Open source which is a term denoting that a “product” includes permission to use its source code, design documents, or content. Use of the term originated with software, but has expanded beyond the software sector to cover other open content and forms of open collaboration.

Social Tribes – We believe that to live in balance with ecology, it is ALSO very important to live in balance with our fellow human beings.

What’s good for the tribe is good for everyone.

A tribe is a group of people connected to one another, connected to a leader, and connected to an idea. A group needs only two things to be a tribe: a shared interest and a way to communicate.

– Seth Godin in Tribes

To integrate in the existing local community but also to create a site for all people to interact and share in an open way knowhow, ideas, experience and social exchanges with other people and cultures. The natural willingness to support each other in a collaborative way. A place where people come together and create mutual enrichment. We want to promote to recycle meanwhile lost knowhow through people who want to share their learned skills and collected wisdom with others people. To awaken long ago forgotten rituals. With the long term goal to gain the ability to produce ourselves within the community the essentials things for life.

This is the “Tribe” theory from PermaTree’s Vision. Now we are implementing the theory by including and activating the existing virtual tribes for PermaTree. This is why having a PermaTree presence on all mayor Social Media platforms was a very natural step.
